Isaiah 30:1-2 (Contemporary English Version) This is the LORD's message for his rebellious people: "You follow your own plans instead of mine; you make treaties without asking me, and you keep on sinning. You trust Egypt for protection. So you refuse my advice and send messengers to Egypt to beg their king for help.
I once heard a story about an old rock group that chose their name by opening the dictionary and closing their eyes and placing it on a word. When they had opened their eyes they found they had landed on “commode.” They were not excited about that word so they chose the next word down, “commodore.” They used their judgment to choose another name and not stick with their first option. We, as Christians, have been given Holy Spirit to help us make wise decisions. Somehow we seem to choose the very first options and not seek God’s choice for our life. Many people do this with boyfriends or girlfriends, with jobs, they often do not seeking God’s will in their everyday life. Then when they face difficulties they blame God but He had a better plan for them from the beginning. He knows what is best for you, check with Him, you will never regret choosing His plan.
Jeremiah 29:11 (New Century Version) I say this because I know what I am planning for you," says the LORD. "I have good plans for you, not plans to hurt you. I will give you hope and a good future.
